- One of the recent trends in fitness is using a wearable device to record data related to the activity a user is performing. The data can be downloaded directly to a computer, smartphone, or other smart devices, and the user can refer to the downloaded data to track his progress. A wearable device may incorporate various sensors to determine activity levels. Non-limiting examples of such sensors include temperature sensors, pressure sensors, water sensors, moisture sensors, saline channel sensors, electric field sensors, current sensors, voltage sensors, impedance sensors, magnetic field sensors, accelerometers, altimeters, GPS sensors, magnetometers, optical sensors, and chemical sensors. Traditionally, a user may wear a single wearable device to record data related to all activities a user is performing. However, some wearable devices may be better at recording data from certain activities than others. For example, a shoe may be better equipped to measure the number of steps, ground force, and foot speed than a headband, but a headband may be better equipped to measure body temperature, pulse rate, and perspiration than a shoe. A user may therefore choose to wear more than one wearable device when performing activities.
- A user that has multiple wearable devices may desire to view the recorded data from all of his wearable devices at the same time, and even manipulate or combine the data to perform a more detailed analysis of his performance.
FIGS. 1-3 discuss different types of smart wearable devices. -

However, in some embodiments, at least two of standingsurface 402,weight scale 502,transmitter 504,receiver 506,memory 508, processor 510 anddisplay 512 may be combined as a single component. Still further, in some embodiments, processor 510 may be implemented as a computer having tangible computer-readable media for carrying or having computer-executable instructions or data structures stored thereon. Such tangible computer-readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by a general purpose or special purpose computer. Non-limiting examples of tangible computer-readable media include physical storage and/or memory media such as RAM, ROM, EEPROM, CD-ROM or other optical disk storage, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to carry or store desired program code means in the form of computer-executable instructions or data structures and which can be accessed by a general purpose or special purpose computer. For information transferred or provided over a network or another communications connection (either hardwired, wireless, or a combination of hardwired or wireless) to a computer, the computer may properly view the connection as a computer-readable medium. Thus, any such connection may be properly termed a computer-readable medium. Combinations of the above should also be included within the scope of computer-readable media. - The interaction between standing
surface 402,weight scale 502,transmitter 504,receiver 506,memory 508, processor 510, and display 512 will be further described with reference toFIG. 6 . -
FIG. 6 illustrates aprocess 600 by which exercise data is downloaded in accordance with aspects of the present invention. - For purposes of discussion, presume that a user has performed various activities and/or exercises, data for which has been stored on a plurality of smart wearable devices of the user. As a non-limiting example, presume that the user has run 2 miles, wherein data associated with the 2-mile run is stored in a wireless communication processor in
shoe 102 ofFIG. 1 . Then, presume that same user played a 5-set tennis match, wherein data associated with the 5-set tennis match is stored in a wireless communication processor inheadband 302 ofFIG. 3 . Finally, presume that the same user then swam 1 mile, wherein data associated with the 1-mile swim is stored in a wireless communication processor insmartwatch 202 ofFIG. 1 . - After completing the various activities, the user desires to see the recorded data for the day. Further, in some cases, the user may also desire to see how the recorded data for the day compares to data previously recorded. A data hub in accordan aspects of the present invention enables these features.
- Each wearable device has recorded and stored its own data, and the user wants to see the data in a manner that is easy to understand. In some embodiments, the recorded data is transferred to an intermediate device, like a mobile phone, as a first step, and then the data is transferred from the intermediate device to the scale. In other embodiments, the recorded data is transferred directly from the wearable devices to the scale. Regardless of the location of the data,
FIG. 6 illustrates a non-limiting example of how the data may be transferred to the scale. - As shown in the figure,
process 600 starts (S602) andscale 400 is activated (S604). For example, returning toFIG. 4 ,user 100 steps on to standingsurface 402 after performing various activities and exercises. Referring now toFIG. 5 , standingsurface 402 communicates withweight scale 502 and informsweight scale 502 thatuser 100 is standing onscale 400.Weight scale 502 then provides display 614 with the weight ofuser 100, and display 614 displays the weight ofuser 100. - Returning to
FIG. 6 , after the scale is activated (S604), there is a handshake between the scale and one or more wearable devices (S606). The handshake secures a connection between the scale and the one or more wearable devices to provide for a data download. For example referring toFIG. 5 ,weight scale 502 notifiestransmitter 504 that it must broadcast a constant handshake signal and look for a return handshake signal from one or more wearable devices. The handshake signals broadcast and transmitted may be any known handshake protocol. - Returning to
FIG. 4 ,shoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302 are sending handshake signals whenuser 100 is onscale 400. Each ofshoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302 also receive the handshake signal fromscale 400. Returning toFIG. 5 ,transmitter 504 receives the handshake signals fromshoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302. With handshake signals both sent and received fromtransmitter 504,shoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302,scale 400 is ready to download data from the wearable devices. - In another embodiment, and with reference to
FIG. 4 ,shoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302 may first secure a handshake connection withmobile phone 404, andmobile phone 404 may then secure a handshake connection withscale 400. Data would then be downloaded frommobile phone 404 instead ofshoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302.Mobile phone 404 may contain an application that connects with each ofshoes 102,smartwatch 202,headband 302, andscale 400 to facilitate the connection and data transfer. - Referring back to
FIG. 6 , after the handshake (S606) the scale then receives data (S608). Returning toFIG. 4 , with the handshakes between devices complete,shoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302 send activity data to scale 400 wirelessly. The wireless data transfer can occur via a wireless internet connection, Bluetooth connection, or any other wireless connection suitable for transferring data. Returning toFIG. 5 ,receiver 506 receives the data fromshoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302, and provides the data tomemory 508. The data recorded byshoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302 is downloaded to scale 400 as different data signals.Memory 508 may store data from a plurality of different wearable devices and a plurality of different exercise sessions. All data downloaded tomemory 508 will have a specific signal based on the type of exercise or activity, and the date or time at which the activity occurred. - In another embodiment, the user may wear a single wearable device that records the data for all activities. In this case, the data from all the activities will be downloaded from the single wearable device as opposed to multiple wearable devices, as described above.
Scale 400 would be able to differentiate between different activities based on the data signals that correspond to the different activities the user performs. - In some embodiments, communication between
scale 400 and the wearable devices may occur in series. As a non-limiting example,scale 400 may first execute a handshake withshoes 102 and then download data fromshoes 102, then execute a handshake withsmartwatch 202 and then download data fromsmartwatch 202, then execute a handshake withheadband 302 and then download data fromheadband 302. - In other embodiments, communication between
scale 400 and the wearable devices may occur in parallel, where all handshakes are completed at the same time, and then all data is downloaded at the same time. - In some embodiments, the data from each wearable device is stored separately within
memory 508 such that the user can view data associated with a single wearable device (for example, how far the user ran in shoes 102). In other embodiments, the data from one or more wearable devices is combined such that the user can view the totals from the data taken from each wearable (for example, how many total calories the user burned during the day). - Referring back to
FIG. 6 , after the data is received (S608) the user data is generated (S610). Returning toFIG. 5 ,memory 508 provides data signals from the downloaded data to processor 510. - In some embodiments, processor 510 creates a signature based on the signals from the downloaded data. As a non-limiting example, processor 510 may receive data signals regarding a user's running, swimming, and tennis activity for the day. Processor 510 may combine those signals in a predetermined manner to create a signature based on the combination of the day's activities. For example, the signature may include information of the total distance covered, the user's average heart rate, the total number of calories burned, or any other data that may be relevant to the user regarding the day's activities. After generating the user data, processor 510 may transmit the user data back to
memory 508 as a signature to be stored. - In other embodiments, processor 510 may maintain separation of the data signals provided by the respective wearable devices. Further, processor 510 may process data signals provided by the respective wearable devices in a different predetermined manner. In any event, processor 510 may then transmit the individual data sets from the respective wearable devices to
memory 508 to be stored. - Returning to
FIG. 6 , after the user data is generated (S610) a comparison signal is generated (S612). For example, returning toFIG. 5 , processor 510 notifiesmemory 508 thatmemory 508 needs to provide the signatures (or in the case where a signature was not stored, then the individual data sets) from the current day's activities and from a previous day's activities to processor 510. In some embodiments, the current day's activities may be compared with the immediate previous day's activities. In some embodiments, the current day's activities may be compared with the most recent day's activities for which exercise was recorded. In some embodiments, the current day's activities may be compared with a predetermined plurality of previous days' activities. In some embodiments, the current day's activities may be compared with an average of a predetermined number of previous days' activities. -
Memory 508 then provides the requested signatures (or individual data sets) to processor 510, and processor 510 proceeds to generate a comparison signal based on the comparison between the two signatures received. The comparison signal serves to provide a comparison between the levels of activity in which the user engaged during the two days being compared. In other embodiments, various comparisons may be made, and comparisons are not limited to comparisons between two consecutive days. As non-limiting examples, comparisons may be made between groups of days, or if the user performs the same exercise every Monday, for example, comparisons may be made between various Mondays. - As a non-limiting example, presume that at a time t1 the user downloaded data from
shoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302, at a time t2 the user downloaded data fromsmartwatch 202 andheadband 302, and at time t3 the user downloaded data fromshoes 102,smartwatch 202, andheadband 302. In creating comparison signals, in some embodiments, processor 510 may only generate a comparison signal between comparable data sets. - In the above example, processor 510 may generate a comparison signal based on the combination of data from all three wearable devices from times t1 and t3, but the data from t2 would not be available for comparison because there is no data available from
shoes 102 at time t2. Processor 510 may generate a comparison signal based on data fromsmartwatch 202 andheadband 302 at times t1, t2, and t3 because data is available for those wearable at all three times. - Returning to
FIG. 6 , after the comparison signal is generated (S612) the user data is displayed (S614). For example, referring back toFIG. 5 , processor 510 provides the comparison signal to display 512, and display 512 displays the comparison information to the user. Returning toFIG. 4 ,user 100 may view the comparison information ondisplay 512 onscale 400. As a non-limiting example,display 512 may showuser 100 that he ran 3 more miles than he ran yesterday, and he burned 500 more calories than yesterday. As described above, there are many different types of comparisons that can be generated and communicated touser 100. - In an another embodiment, after downloading the exercise and activity data to
scale 400,user 100 may want to view the data on a larger screen or he may want to manipulate the data in more depth thanscale 400 allows. In this case,scale 400 may be equipped to transmit data or comparison signals to another device, like a laptop or table computer. For example,user 100 may want to display his exercise performance over the last year in a graphical format, which may be easier to do on a computer. - In some embodiments,
scale 400 may upload data to another device. Such an upload may occur whenever data is downloaded toscale 400, or at predetermined times. - Returning to
FIG. 6 , after the data is displayed (S614),process 600 ends (S616). - The above discussed non-limiting example deals with a scale being used as a data hub for multiple wearable smart devices. However, in another embodiment,
user 100 may only use a single wearable device when performing multiple exercises. The single wearable device may record the data from all different exercises andactivities user 100 performs throughout the day, and the data would have different signals based on the activity being performed, as previously described. Whenuser 100 steps on standingsurface 402, the data from the single wearable device downloads toscale 400, andscale 400 can differentiate the data based on the signals that correspond to different activities or exercises.Scale 400 can then showuser 100 his progress, as previously described. - The present invention provides a device and method to wirelessly download data from a wearable device to a scale. The scale is able to compare exercise and activity data from previous days or previous exercise sessions to notify the user of his progress.
- The foregoing description of various preferred embodiments have been presented for purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed, and obviously many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teaching. The example embodiments, as described above, were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the invention and its practical application to thereby enable others skilled in the art to best utilize the invention in various embodiments and with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated. It is intended that the scope of the invention be defined by the claims appended hereto.
